"Chicken formula," "Salmon formula," "Beef formula," "Kitten formula." What?! Does this can of Wellness cat food really contain "Kitten"? Oh my god. It's hard to believe that a major pet food company (Mother Hubbard) let this huge goof slip by and the cans described above turn up on supermarket shelves.
It's a classic example of non-parallel construction, as I tried to explain by phone to a customer service rep. I think she got it. At least she promised to tell others there, in the marketing dept. I can only hope she explained it clearly. The proof will be in future cans of Wellness cat food. Wish I could bet with someone on whether a correction will be made.
And, no, Harry and Billy don't eat canned food. I was just "shelf-shopping."

Hi, folks. I've managed to lose a few of your comments lately, for which I'm sorry. In the process of trying to master the ins and outs of blogging, I've goofed a few times, as some of you already know. Please accept my apology, then keep reading and commenting. Thank you!
